From Maine.

Some years ago my mothers health
began to decline; nervous prostration
ensued. She had ho relish for food
aud could not sleep, and without
strength of course she could not walk
without experiencing a great fatigue
We used the ordinary remedies, but
without any permanent results. Stlm-
ulants would refresh for the time be-
ing, but did not build up the system.
We heard of Swift's Specific and its
tonic effects. We secured several pack
ages of the dry form-the powdered
roots anu herbs-and after using some
half dozen packages my mother has
regained her health and strength. She
is more like her former self than she
has been for years. She owes her pre-
sent vigorous health to Swift's Speci-
fic. 1t is the best tonic I ever heard
of. ORLANDO J. HACKETT.

st. Francois County Democrat: ION
last Thursday Samuel era ley met
Alph Mitchell out on the Potosi road
Crawley presented pistol and III ct
arnis compelled Mitchell to dismount
from his wagon, pray and crawl across
the road on his hands and knees and
then crawl back again. The next day
Crawley came to town armed with a
double barrelled shotgun, and with a
belt full Of cartridges belted upon him.
He was arrested and taken before
Esquire Koen and bond for his APP
pearsnce was fixed at 500 90. Craw
icy and one security signed the bond,
when something occurred to displease
him and he lett the court room, went
to Branaugh's saloon. procured his
shotgun and swore that all the officers
and people in Pennington could not
arrest him. He proposed to go back
to the 'Squire's office and destroy the
bond. What could have come of the
matter it is hard TO say, but some of
his friends went and signed the bond.
We bad hoped that the time had passed
when one man could stake the town"
of Pennington, but our hopes are vain.
In view OF these events We would sug-
gest that the citizens of Pennington
organize COMMITTEE of Protection"
to prevent recurrence of such scenes.

Once more we say that the submits
aion of Prohibition amendment, to be
voted on two years from now, will be
fruitful of danger If not disaster to the
Democratic party. 1883 is Presidential
year, when the whole country will be
agitated over n national election, and
fanaticism is not needed to add to the
bitterness of the campaign. Beside,
the great majority of our people do not
demand Submission. Those who are
yelling for 1t are strong-lunged, aud
their voice, by reason of vehemence
and repetition, sounds as if it were
that OF the multitude. But 1t is de-
lusive. Go among the people of all
classes and you will find they, as a
rule, have very little concern in the
matter. and that little is, four-fiftbs.

Neither the voters nor the children are
crying for Submission, aud a Demo-
cratic Legislature will act wisely if it
let's it severely alone.

may be true, especially where ladies

of the fact would appear superfiuous.

The city of st. Louis has manifestly
shown its inability to govern itself. Its
Scheme and Charter should at once be
taken from it, and the city should be
"got hack" into the county again and
made part of it. What have United
States Courts, United States jurors, or
judges, to do with an election for State,
county or municipal officers? Why
should the United States trouble itself
about appointing Mr.. Dyer or any 9TH
er Republican to assist in prosecuting
State offences? We trust that the new
attorney of the Eastern District of Nils
souri, " ill transfer these cases to the
State tribunals, where they properly
belong. If st. Louis cannot be trusted
with a vigorous prosecution, let the
revenue he changed outside the city,
and we will guarantee no guilty one
shall escape.

We fully endorse, as true beyond
peradventure, the following remarks of
the Jefferson Democrat anent that

tempt is being made to unite all the
labor organizations of the State into a
political party: A conference has been
held and H. Martin Williams appoint

ford is the special organizer for this
Congressional district. 1t sounds fun
ny to hear H. Martin Williams name
mentioned as chief organizer for labor
ing men, as he never did an honest
days work at natural labor in bis life;
but is a regular blatherskite. Not
much good can be expected of the new
organization as political power"

Women who Wear Tight Shoes.

"Women who pose as models have.
as rule, poorly shaped feet" said an
artist to a reporter. ''If there feet are
not poorly shaped they are apt to be
out of proportion by being too small.
The reason is obvious. Women are am
bilious to have small feet and hands
and at an early age they begin to wear
tight shoes. The result is that their
feet are cramped and do not grow with
the other members OF the body OF
course there are some professional mod
els who began early in life and never
crumped their feet with tight shoes.
They have correct proportions. Ispeak
generally of the mass of women who
become models after they are IS
years old. Women imagine if they
have small feet and hands they have
all that is necessary to give them a
shapely appearance. A worse mistake
was never made Women who are
large should naturally have feet in pro-
portion; from an artistic point of view
they look better. But you cannot
make them think so.
"a crusade ought to be waged against
wearing tight shoes. The tight shoe in
the first place cramps the toes all to-
gether, until they lose shape and become
trescoed with corns. The foot doesn't
get the free circulation of blood in it
that it should have and falls behind in
growth. "-NeW York Mail and Er-

Board OF Trade, President ]. NJ. Bohrer,
presiding, letters which are constantly
reaching members oi the board from out
side dealers who complain that they have
never received returns from shipments
made to certain alleged dealers in st. Paul,
drew out q set OF resolutions, which were
unanimously passed:
Whereas, This board OF trade has
learned OF the disreputablc practices
OF certain dealers and commission
merchants OF st. Paul, we deem it
our duty as a representative body to pub
lish q list OF the members OF our body do
Ing commission business, for whom we
can vouch as being honorable dealers and
worthy OF consignments. We would ad-
wise all country dealers to consign their
produce to some one OF these firms, and to
thoroughly investigate all others before
making consignments to this market, and
thereby save themselves trouble and losses.
The list embraces some fifty individuals
and firms OF character and standing, whose
names can be obtained OF the President or
Secretary.
It was also resolved to extend an invita-
tion to the Minnesota Butter, Cheese and
Dairy Stock association and the Minne-
sofa Dairy accociation to hold their next
annual meeting in st. Paul in rooms to be
furnished by the st. Paul board OF trade.
